The Robots of CES

Meet a cycling android, a remote-controlled orb, and other robotic curiosities from last week’s Consumer Electronics Show.

This robot, called the Rydis H1004 II, roves around its owner’s home and filters the air as it goes. It is also designed to act as a safety system for elderly people living alone. It connects with a wrist band that can detect a fall, and can call for help if one occurs. The robot is made by South Korean company Moneual. It should arrive in the U.S. later this year, and will cost around $1,000.
